What are prescription glasses?
Dioptric glasses are specially made lenses that correct errors in the refraction of light, allowing the eye to properly focus the image on the retina. They come in different shapes and materials – from standard plastic glasses to advanced thin and light materials such as polycarbonate or trivex. Apart from the basic correction, glasses can have additional layers to protect against scratches, UV rays, blue light and reflections.
What are progressive lenses and who are they for?
Progressive lenses are multifocal lenses without a visible line between different focus zones. They are intended for people who need vision correction for distance, medium distance (e.g. computer) and near (reading), which makes them an ideal solution for people over 40 who have presbyopia. Unlike bifocal glasses, progressive glasses allow a natural transition between zones, without sudden jumps in focus.
What is the role of the anti-reflective layer?
The anti-reflective layer is a thin, almost invisible coating that eliminates unwanted reflections from the glass surface. Its primary purpose is to improve visual clarity and reduce eye fatigue, especially when working at a computer or driving at night. In addition, the anti-reflective layer makes the glasses more aesthetically appealing because it eliminates reflections, which is especially useful when taking photos or video calls.
